It's been a loong time since I did HTML and CSS, and I'm playing around with grid-layout, but can't get it to work.
I have made a burger menu, that, when I click it, should toggle the display attribute and show the menu tag. This works, but because the grid is also inside a element, the content of the grid is not filling the whole parent element, just a part of it.
Also, I would like the LinkedIn and WhatsApp icon to be in the lower right corner of the blue rectangle. I have tried with divs and position, but that ruined a lot and had a weird behaviour.
Anyone knows what I'm doing wrong?
function nav_burger(burger) {
burger.classList.toggle("morph");
var e = document.getElementById("navigation");
if (e.style.display === "none") {
e.style.display = "block";
} else {
e.style.display = "none";
}

I'm on mobile and using CodePen but I think I know what's going on and I've got a solution for you,
Grid Layout
The issue with your grid not filling the parent container likely comes from how the container is styled and how the grid itself is being handled. The container of the grid, which is .scc, is taking the full width and height, but we need to ensure that the grid inside it also stretches fully.
You can add the following CSS to ensure that the grid takes up the full height of the parent:
.grid {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: repeat(14, 1fr);
gap: 20px;
padding: 0;
height: 100%; /* Ensure grid takes full height */
}
This should ensure that the grid expands fully within the parent container.
Icon Position
The issue with positioning the icons can be handled by using position: absolute on the element that contains the icons, and setting its parent as position: relative to control the positioning within that parent. Here’s how to adjust it:
First, wrap the icons in a container if they aren't already. Then, use the following CSS:
/* Parent container */
div.scc {
position: relative; /* Establish this container as the reference point */
}
/* Icon container */
div.icon-container {
position: absolute;
bottom: 20px; /* Distance from bottom */
right: 20px; /* Distance from right */
text-align: right; /* Align icons within the container */
}
.icon-container i {
font-size: 15pt;
color: #ffffff;
}
Update your HTML accordingly:
<div class="icon-container">
<i class="fa-brands fa-linkedin"></i>
<i class="fa-brands fa-whatsapp"></i>
</div>
This will position the icons 20px from the bottom-right corner of the .scc container.
Recap
Add height: 100% to the grid to ensure it fills the parent container.
Use position: absolute to position the LinkedIn and WhatsApp icons at the bottom-right corner.
Other Considerations
Ensure that your div#scaffold_screen is taking up the full width and height of the viewport if it's not already.
You might want to ensure that overflow is handled correctly, especially for the grid's container, to prevent clipping or unwanted scrollbars.
